My Project

The Choir Department at our school is home to 5 choirs and over 120+ students. We perform 6 concerts in our auditorium each year, as well as various performances throughout the community. Especially in a performance venue that seats 1,000+, it is common practice to reinforce a choir's sound with additional amplification.

With your help, the purchase of 2 Audix MicroBoom systems will ensure our students' voices can be heard by all!

Students work hard throughout the year preparing music to share with audiences of their families, friends, and school/community members. With this project, listeners will be able to hear our choirs no matter where they are seated in the audience and no matter the size of the choir. Amplification not only creates a more accessible concert environment but also provides a high-quality listening experience for all!

Not only can these microphones be used for choir concerts at school, but they also are easily transportable for our performances in other venues, will benefit other ensembles who use our auditorium, and can be used for years to come!
